An announcement from BHP Group Ltd ( (AU:BHP) ) is now available.
BHP Group Ltd reported strong financial results for the half-year ending December 2024, with profit after taxation skyrocketing by 376% to $4.4 billion despite an 8% decline in revenue. The company declared an interim dividend of 50 US cents per share, amounting to $2.5 billion, reflecting its operational resilience amidst fluctuating market conditions. The period saw notable production gains, particularly a 10% increase in copper production and strategic investments in growth sectors like potash and copper, including the formation of a joint venture with Lundin Mining in Argentina. Additionally, BHP is well-positioned to benefit from the increasing global demand for metals driven by urbanization and technological advancements, underpinned by its robust balance sheet and commitment to sustainable practices.
